Default RE: Fatboy Handle Bar Questions

Do you know what the part number of your Wide Glide bar is? The dealership didnt have any Wide Glides or WG bars in stock so I couldnt compare the two bars. They just told me the WG bars were a little taller but also more pulled back - would be nice to test both bars.

Dont suppose you have a pic looking straight down your bars, onto the tank, to view the pull back - I know - wishful thinking

I had another member suggest these risers and they worked out great for my '02 FB.&nbsp\\; They are 4 1/2" high and 1 1/2" pullback.&nbsp\\; Had to get 4 shorter bolts for clamp but no cable issues and 30 minute job.

cool - I can see how they would be much easier to install than bars.

I have a 2004 Fatboy and I really dont like the handlebars that I have on it right now.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;I feel like I am leaning too forward and I really cant stretch out.&nbsp\\;\\
Had the same problem with my Road King. I installed 16" apes.&nbsp\\; Not only cured the comfort issue but they look cool too.
